CayCay Godwin Poet Footle

her choice

Inspired by My Darling Little Sister, My Punky

yard sale

just four
with cash

christmas
shopping

gift picks
her choice

angels
adorn

each roof
over

salt pep
houses 

shakers
perfect

gift for
parents

parents
open ~

angels
hold scrolls

pep reads
‘p house’

salt reads
‘s house’

mom nods
mouth wide

dad squirms
eyes down

too thrilled
for words

girl child
